Passing in the func, file and line information complicates the
interface. On top of that, it prevents forward declaring Hashmap in
strv.h, as we need to pass the macros everywhere that we allocate a
hashmap, which means we have to include the hashmap header everywhere
we have a function that allocates a hashmap instead of just having to
forward declare Hashmap.
Let's drop the file, func and line information from the debug information.
Instead, in the future we can add a description field to hashmaps like we
already have in various other structs to describe the purpose of the hashmap
which should be much more useful than having the file, line and function where
the hashmap was allocated.
Now that the necessary functions from log.h have been moved to macro.h,
we can stop including log.h in macro.h. This requires modifying source
files all over the tree to include log.h instead.
strv_skip was written to carefully return the original array, but this turns
out to be an unnecessary complication. After the previous patch, no caller
cares about the distinction between NULL and { NULL }, but various callers need
to wrap the process the returned value with strv_isempty(), sometimes more than
once. Let's always return NULL for an empty result to allow callers to be
simplified.
This uses the same logic as similar verb suggestion for command line
utilities. Try to be helpful when the user entered something invalid
instead of just showing the prompt again.
Also, use the more correct type of 'const char* const*' for the input strv.
This requires adding the cast in a few places, but also allows to remove some
casts in others.
strv_make_nulstr() is documented to always return a valid nulstr,
but if the input is `NULL` we return a string terminated with only
a single NUL terminator, so let's fix that and always terminate the
resulting string with two NUL bytes.
This will be helpful in cases where we are repeatedly adding entries
to a long strv and want to skip the iteration over old entries leading
to quadratic behaviour.
Note that we don't want to calculate the length if not necessary, so
the calculation is delayed until after we've checked that value is not
NULL.
